(Question) Armok and worship
« on: February 12, 2017, 11:55:50 am »

Is there any mod that allows my Dwarves to worship the GREAT AND GLORIOUS ARMOK THE GOD OF BLOOD!

adamantine, the only material that can be honed to an edge so fine it can cut light, cleave steel like butter, and sever heads with the enthusiasm of a deranged bloodthirsty child.

Turn those goblinoid uglybolds into adorable cutebolds

That's just a fan theory. DF fan culture at some point (maybe right from the beginning?) became obsessed with torturing dorfs, burning nobles, commiting genocide on elves. The player is Armok is a fine theory to justify it.

I'm pretty sure Toady has confirmed it in one of the interviews.

Intelligent is a strong word to use around DF.
you're lucky it wasn't an adventurer.  I've heard they can bash your skull in by throwing water at you.  UNDERWATER

Oh, OK. Will check that out later. Seems ridiculous to try to limit player imagination like that though. Shame really. The vision of DF as 'fantasy world generator' was excellent.

--Ok. Watched interview now. Was more of a humorous reply to a pretty bizarre question about Tarn being the reincarnation of Armok?! Besides, the comment is about an idea they had about the original Slaves to Armok.
